Romance Historical | Western
As the Texas and Pacific Railroad expands across the
wideopen frontier, a spirited young woman finds a triumphant
love amidst the tracks and tumult. History in
the making . . . July 1876: Building a railroad
that reaches Fort Worth city limits by a midnight deadline
is an all-consuming obsession for track supervisor Gabriel
Corrigan—while his socialite wife, Marthalee, daughter of a
powerful Louisiana politician, heads home to arrange a
marriage annulment. But when Gabe crosses paths with Josie
Laclede, a vivacious businesswoman from St. Louis, he sees a
sassy lady bold enough to stake her claim in the wild Texas
plains—yet soft and sweet enough to win his heart.
Love for the keeping . . . Though her
past is a mystery—Josie was a foundling, raised by a kind
widower who now runs a shop and hotel with her—Gabe dreams
of a bright future with Josie by his side. Tantalized by his
gentle kisses, and swept up in the thrilling track-laying
race that has all of Fort Worth pitching in, Josie is
tempted to fall hard for Gabe. But Marthalee returns, vying
for the T&P fortune he stands to make. And when her
father offers Gabe a senate seat and a chance to get back
into his well connected family, a heartbroken Josie vanishes
with the prairie breeze. Will their dream of a
once-in-a-lifetime love go up in smoke?
